F.K. Masonry owner Florim Kabashi created his own business after coming to the United States as a refugee from the war in Kosovo. Pictured below is his new M-Series Bobcat compact excavator, working on a project in the fall of 2010.
IN 2010, BOBCAT COMPANY INTRODUCED A NEW BOBCAT ADVANTAGE WEBSITE TO SHOW THE WORLD WHY BOBCAT EXCAVATORS ARE THE BEST IN THE INDUSTRY. SEVENTEEN VIDEO SEGMENTS HIGHLIGHT THE MOST COMMONLY EVALUATED CRITERIA WHEN COMPARING EXCAVATOR BRANDS. THESE VIDEOS ARE HOSTED ONLINE AND VIEWERS LIKE YOU CAN SEE WHY BOBCAT EXCAVATORS SURPASS THE OTHER BRANDS IN MANY KEY ATTRIBUTES, SUCH AS DIGGING PERFORMANCE, HYDRAULIC HORSEPOWER, TRAVEL TIME, SERVICEABILITY AND MANY MORE.
“Toward the end of 2009, I had several stone walls to do at one time and decided I needed my own excavator,” he recalls. “I was very pleased with my S205 so I went back to Bobcat of Connecticut in East Hartford, intending to purchase a used excavator. I was very familiar with the models because those were the machines I borrowed or rented.
“At the dealership I discovered the new M-Series excavators and, although I wasn’t thinking of a new machine, after trying the E35 for 20 minutes I decided to buy it.
“A number of new features, such as smoother control of machine functions, Auto-Shift travel, an integrated slew brake, reduced machine weight, low fuel consumption and enhanced operator comfort made this purchase the right decision,” he says.
When the weather broke in March 2010, Kabashi was ready. “With the E35 I was able to save more than a week’s worth of time on the very fi rst job.”
Kabashi previously passed up jobs where there was a lot of digging because he did not have the equipment.
“Last year I put a curtain drain around a house, digging down 9 to 10 feet in about two hours,” he notes. “That made me realize I can do this type of work. I’ve added excavation to the list of services I offer. I’m no longer afraid of any size job.”
In one year, the E35 signifi cantly changed Kabashi’s business.
“I used to do 25 to 30 jobs a year without the excavator. With it I can do 40 to 50 jobs. Before I had the excavator I would run out of time in the fall and not be able to fi nish all the work I had. I would have to reluctantly tell customers I would have to push their project back to spring. In 2010, I fi nished every job I scheduled — no problem.”
